ICT Balance Price Range [UAlgo]The "ICT Balance Price Range " indicator identifies and visualizes potential balance price ranges (BPRs) on a price chart. These ranges are indicative of periods where the market exhibits balance between bullish and bearish forces, often preceding significant price movements.
🔶 What is Balanced Price Range (BPR) ?
Balanced Price Range is a concept based on Fair Value Gap. Balanced price range (BPR) is the area on price chart where two opposite fair value gaps overlap.
When price approaches the Balanced Price Range (BPR), we assume that the price will react quickly and strongly here. This is because its the combination of two fair value gaps and being a good point of interest for smart money traders.
🔶 Key Features:
Bars to Consider: Determines the number of bars to evaluate for BPR conditions.
Threshold for BPR: Sets the minimum range required for a valid BPR to be identified.
Remove Old BPR: Option to automatically remove invalidated BPRs from the chart.
Bearish/Bullish Box Color: Customizable colors for visual representation of bearish and bullish BPRs.

Volatility Filter v2VF v2 is a new iteration of my tool designed for traders who wish to gain a deeper understanding of market dynamics, specifically to distinguish periods of high volatility, which often correspond to strong market trends. By identifying these periods, traders can make more informed decisions, potentially leading to better trading outcomes.
Understanding Market Volatility:
At the heart of this script lies the concept of market volatility, a statistical measure reflecting the degree of variation in trading prices. Volatility is pivotal for traders; it provides insights into the market's emotional state, indicating periods of uncertainty or confidence. High volatility often correlates with strong trends, making it a critical indicator for trend-followers. By identifying when volatility crosses a certain threshold, traders can discern whether the market is likely to be in a trending phase or a more subdued, range-bound state.
How the Script Works:
The core functionality of the script revolves around a signal line that oscillates around a zero threshold. When the signal line is above zero, it indicates increased market volatility, suggesting the presence of a trend. The farther the oscillator deviates from zero, the stronger the implied trend. This mechanism enables traders to visually gauge market conditions and adjust their strategies accordingly.
Controlling the Indicator:
To cater to diverse trading styles and preferences, the script is equipped with several customizable settings:
Filter Threshold: This 'zero line' acts as the baseline for distinguishing between different volatility regimes. Crossing this threshold is a primary signal for changes in market volatility.
Moving Average Type: With over 30 types of moving averages to choose from, traders can select the one that best fits their analysis style. Each type offers a different perspective on price data, allowing for a tailored approach to trend identification.
Colorize Indicator: This feature enhances the visual representation of the indicator, making it easier to interpret. When enabled, the oscillator's color intensity varies with its proximity to the extremes, providing a quick visual cue about trend strength.
Advanced Settings – Length and Multiplier:
The script introduces an innovative approach to time frame analysis through its length and multiplier settings:
Length: This parameter sets the base period for all metrics within the script, similar to traditional indicators.
Multiplier: This unique feature differentiates the script by incorporating three distinct timeframes into the analysis: a lower timeframe, the main (current) timeframe, and a higher timeframe. The multiplier adjusts these timeframes relative to the main one. For instance, with a daily main timeframe and a multiplier of 2, the lower timeframe would be 12 hours, and the higher timeframe would be 2 days. This tri-timeframe approach aims to provide a more comprehensive volatility assessment.
Volatility Filter Indicators Section:
The script utilizes nine different, undisclosed metrics within its volatility filter. Traders have the flexibility to enable or disable these metrics based on their preferences, allowing for a customizable trading experience. Additionally, the script offers alert functionality for when the indicator crosses the threshold, either upwards or downwards, facilitating timely decision-making.
P.S
With better understanding of markets over time, I designed a new iteration of my volatility filter indicator. The second version provides faster, more precise way to analyze markets, but I also wanted to keep my first version untouched in case if some people find it better for their purposes. As I mentioned above, this version is calculated in a very different way from a previous one, so if you never tried it you can do it here
Advanced Technical Range and Expectancy Estimator [SS]Hello everyone,
This indicator is a from of momentum based probability modelling. It is derived from my own approaches to probability modelling but just simplified a bit.
How it works:
The indicator looks at various technical, including stochastics, RSI, MFI and Z-Score, to determine the likely sentiment. All of these, with the exception of Z-Score, are momentum based indicators and can alert us to likely sentiment. However, instead of us making the subjective determination ourselves as to whether the RSI or MFI or Stochastics are bullish, the indicator will look at previous instances of these occurrences, and tally the bullish and bearish follow throughs that happened. It will also calculate the average target price that was hit, under similar conditions, on the same timeframe.
The Z-Score is your "tie breaker". It is not a momentum based indicator and measures something a little different (the standard deviation and over-extension of the stock). For this reason, it provides an alternative assessment and tends to be a bit more reliable in times of low momentum.
Back-test Results:
The indicator back-tests itself over the previous 100 candles. I have limited it to 100 candles for pragmatic considerations (it has to back-test each technical individually and increasing the BT length will slow and potentially error out the indicator) as well as accuracy considerations.
One thing I have noticed in my years of trying to crack the code and develop probability models for tickers, is historical accuracy doesn't always matter because sentiment is always changing. You need to see what it has done over the most recent 100 to 200 candles.
There are two back-test windows, one for the price targets and the other for the sentiment accuracy. The most effective/most accurate will highlight green, the least effective/least accurate will highlight red:
In the image above, you can see that the most accurate predictor of sentiment is Z-Score, with a 90.32% accuracy rate over the past 100 candles.
The most accurate predictor of price is MFI, with a 60% (for bull targets) and 42% (for bear targets)accuracy rate.
Anchoring Points:
The indicator permits you to anchor by two points. The default setting is anchoring by previous candle. If you plan to use this as an oscillator, to see the current prediction for the current candle you are viewing, then you will need to leave this default setting. It will pull the data from the previous candle and give you the data for the current candle you are on.
If you are assess the likely sentiment for the next day after the day has closed off, you will want to anchor by current candle. This will take the current technicals that the day has closed off with and run the assessment for you.
Customizability
You can customize the technicals by source and length of assessment.
They are all defaulted to the traditional settings of these indicators, but if you want to customize your model to try and improve or enhance accuracy in one way or another, you are free and able to do so!
I do suggest leaving the defaults as they seem to work particular well :-).
Thresholds
Thresholds are the tolerance levels that we permit for our technical search range. If you want them to be exactly identical, then you can set it to 0. If you want it to be extremely similar, you can set it to 0.01. This will hone in on the ranges you are interest in and you can see how it affects your accuracy by reviewing the results in the back-test tables.
Keep Static Colour Option
I want to make a quick note on the "Keep Static Colour" option that is in your settings menu.
The primary table that shows you the probability and price targets change colours based on the accuracy of the assessment. This is so, if you are using a mobile device or smaller screen and can't have the back-test results open at the same time, you can see still which are the most reliable results. However, if you have the back-test tables open and you find these colour changes too distracted, you can toggle on the "Keep Static Colour" and it will resort the colour of the table to a solid white:
Show Technicals
The indicator can show you the current technical values if you are using it in place of an oscillator. Its less pivotal as its making the assessment for you, but just for your reference if you want to see what the current MFI, Z-Score or Stochastics etc. are, you have that option as well.
All Timeframes Permitted
You can view Weekly, Monthly, Hourly, 5 minute, 1 minute, its all supported!
That's the indicator in a nutshell.
Hope you enjoy and leave your questions below.
Safe trades everyone!
ADR % RangesThis indicator is designed to visually represent percentage lines from the open of the day. The % amount is determined by X amount of the last days to create an average...or Average Daily Range (ADR).
1. ADR Percentage Lines: The core function of the script is to apply lines to the chart that represent specific percentage changes from the daily open. It first calculates the average over X amount of days and then displays two lines that are 1/3rd of that average. One line goes above the other line goes below. The other two lines are the full "range" of the average. These lines can act as boundaries or targets to know how an asset has moved recently. *Past performance is not indicative of current or future results.
The calculation for ADR is:
Step 1. Calculate Today's Range = DailyHigh - DailyLow
Step 2. Store this average after the day has completed
Step 3. Sum all day's ranges
Step 4. Divide by total number of days
Step 5. Draw on chart
2. Customizable Inputs: Users have the flexibility to customize the script through various inputs. This includes the option to display lines only for the current trading day (`todayonly`), and to select which lines are displayed. The user can also opt to show a table the displays the total range of previous days and the average range of those previous days.
3. No Secondary Timeframe: The ADR is computed based on whatever timeframe the chart is and does not reference secondary periods. Therefore the script cannot be used on charts greater than daily.
This script is can be used by all traders for any market. The trader might have to adjust the "X" number of days back to compute a historical average. Maybe they only want to know the average over the past week (5 days) or maybe the past month (20 days).

- Customisable appearance.
- The ATR+ also includes the basic ATR configuration options typically found in the standard ATR by Tradingview, including period length and smoothing type. Defaults are set to the factory standards: 14 length, RMA smoothing type.
What Is the Average True Range (ATR)?
The ATR is a technical analysis tool that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range asset price for that period. Investopedia describes the ATR as follows:
"The average true range (ATR) is a technical analysis indicator, introduced by market technician J. Welles Wilder Jr. in his book New Concepts in Technical Trading Systems, that measures market volatility by decomposing the entire range of an asset price for that period.
The true range indicator is taken as the greatest of the following: current high less the current low; the absolute value of the current high less the previous close; and the absolute value of the current low less the previous close. The ATR is then a moving average, generally using 14 days, of the true ranges."
For more information on the ATR and its calculations and use cases, see here:
Investopedia link here.
Tradingview link here.
Note
The indicator may time out if the number of bars being calculated is too long. If this happens, you will need to reduce the datetime range, or increase the chart timeframe in order to reduce the number of bars being calculated and the indicator will attempt to recalculate.
Asteroid Belt SpaceManBTCAsteroid Belt SpaceManBTC
Asteroid Belt is a trend analysis tool that provides 3 areas of importance, upper, lower, and main belt. The belts provide areas
of key interest that will likely cause a reaction on any asset that is being charted.
Within The Belt
There are 2 ways to play the belt, when trending in either direction, entering the belt can be seen as an area to buy a pullback, providing a strong entry in the trend. The Upper Belt will suffice in the strongest of trends, the middle of the belt indicates a trend that is still strong. A tap of the lowest belt is a weaker trend but often the bottom of any uptrend.
The other way to play the belt from within is play the range from one belt to the other usually the lower belt to the upper belt for a full range play is successful and the mid belt should be used to take partial profits/determine the strength of the move to the other side of the belt.
Responsiveness
3 Types of responsiveness, Fast, Slow and Normal. Slow being the default as its my preffered. The Slow belt will highlight entries with higher probability of causing reaction.
Normal is the best for reliable entries with less patience, it can be recommended for those who are faster to react to directional changes.
Fast belt should only really be used on the Higher timeframe trends as their pull backs can take significantly longer and therefore provides a reliable entry for a quicker than usual high time frame execution.
Dynamic Colors
This is a simple calculation which will be advanced in the future, it can be used to determine the strength of a trend in the belt, highlighting uptrend and downtrends when enabled. Can be disabled in settings.
Auto Aggregator is the primary difference by providing its own calculations very different to how previous auto calculations have worked in spacemanbtc indicators, this aggregator is a work in progress but should produce results that can be replicated accross all coins. Doing so allows for chart by chart switching and is useful for anyone who is in need of quick trend analysis. This can be disabled for manual fine tuning. On by default for new users to learn with.
To Do:
Add outer reversion belts for a full trading system.
Improve dynamic coloring logic.
Improve Auto Aggregator logic.
Rescaled RangeRescaled Range is an implementation of the fractal rescaled ranges developed by Harold Edwin Hurst and Benoit Mandlebrot.
Settings include:
“Window Size” - the number of time periods in a window over which price changes are analyzed. This will generally correspond to your trading horizon and defaults to 15.
“Number of Windows” - the number of “Window Size” intervals to average the rescaled range value over. By looking at a number of such periods, the study captures potential volatility that may have occurred in the recent past. This should be set long enough to capture the current trend (defaults to 63), but not so long to include volatility regimes no longer in play.
Each window in the average is offset by 1 time period from the the others - like a moving average.
This study plots two lines - “Rescaled Range High” which indicates overbought conditions when the price moves above it and “Rescaled Range Low” which indicates oversold conditions when the price moves below it.
This study builds upon the bridge range work of Joe Catanzaro (joecat808) and Caleb Sandfort (calebsandfort). Bridge ranges are used to position the rescaled range with respect to the closing price.
Note: Your time series must have (Window Size + Number of Windows) or more periods of data to complete this study. For example, using the defaults, your time series should have (15+63) = 78 periods or more of data.
[astropark] price levelsDear Followers,
today another awesome Analysis Tool, that you can use in your trading journey: Price Levels !
Are you a range trading player? a scalper? or maybe a day-trader or a swing-trader? This is for you then. Indeed it's for everyone.
This indicator works on every timeframe, market and pair.
It keeps track of recent important levels generated by price action:
Monday high, low and middle range level
Tuesday high and low
Wednesday high and low
Thursday high and low
Friday high and low
Weekly open, high and low
Monthly open, high and low
Yearly open, high and low
Previous weekly open, high and low
Previous monthly open, high and low
Previous yearly open, high and low
You can:
choose price levels to hide and show
change each level color / thickness / display style (solid or dotted)
choose to show or hide price labels and change their size
Why such indicator should be helpful? How can I use it to do profit?
In multiple ways! Let's talk about Monday Range :
when Monday range is formed, price acceptance below Monday low is a bearish signal, so will more likely want to short / sell
equally price acceptance above Monday high is a bullish signal, so will more likely want to long / buy
it can happen that Monday high is simply retested, with price not being able to stay above it: this is called a retest (in case of a simple wick) or a deviation (in case of price staying above the level just for some candles) and what usually happens is price falling back to Monday middle range level and even back to Monday low.
the opposite can happen of course: you will become bullish if Monday low is tested or a deviation appears below Monday low: price tends to bounce on such occasions back to Monday middle range or even Monday high
Tuesday is usually a marker day within a trading week:
if Monday was pretty bullish, Tuesday high may mark the weekly top, following some red days
if Monday was pretty bearish, Tuesday low may mark the weekly bottom, following some green days
Thursday is the day when big players start to take profits, as the trading week is going to end the next day, so in an all-green week Thursday may be a red one, while in an all-red week it may be a bullish day
Thursday is the day when big players start to take profits, as the trading week is going to end the next day:
in an all-green week, Thursday may be a red one and it's low tends to mark the weekly low
while in an all-red week, it tends to be a bullish day, so here you will refill your shorts for the next blooding day
Let's talk now about the Weekly, Monthly and Yearly price levels : here it is the interesting part for Swing Traders
Weekly open is usually a defining level: on retest, if price keeps staying below then more downside is expected, if price keeps staying above then more upside is expected (similarly to what we said about Monday high and low)
Monthly and Yearly open price levels are usually a "no-brainer" buy level in a bullish trend or equally a sell level in a bearish trend: in this scenarios, a deviation structure is even more powerful in term of price reaction and efficiency
We trade Weekly, Monthly and Yearly high and low price levels as explained for the Monday high and low, but with a swing traders perspective (so a medium-long term trade)
Previous Weekly/Monthly/Yearly price levels are usually very useful as targets in your trades
Here below some screenshots that resumes what said above.
Weekly Open as support (bullish) and Monday High deviation (bearish)
Tuesday High, Weekly Open failing as support: bearish
Monday Low deviation (bullish)
Price Acceptance above Monday High and Weekly Open (bullish)
Yearly Open retests as buy opportunities
Deviation below Monthly Open (bullish), Price Acceptance below Monthly and Yearly Open (bearish)

@thecf RSI + 12-EMA + Magic 89-EMA + RangesThis RSI has a couple modifications. It works with bullish and bearish control zones and implements both a 12 EMA as well as the "magic" 89 Moving Average.
First, the ranges. Whenever the RSI moves above 65 the bulls are in control.
Whenever the RSI moves blow 45 the bears are in control. Everything in between in neutral. Traders can use these levels for information on strength of either bulls or bears and also for support and resistance .
Both EMAs are best used for crossovers, as well as support and resistance .
The idea for the "magic" 89 moving average, originally stems from Fibonacci values that some traders like to use for support and resistance on price.
From observation, it holds more information though, when used as a moving average of the RSI and in combination with a 12 EMA .
When the RSI crosses above the 89 moving average, it can be interpreted as a potential shift in trend up. The 12 EMA then shortly afterwards usually confirms it by also crossing above the 89 moving average.
The 89 moving average can also signalize a potential shift in trend coming up when reaching 70.
The magic MA works best on timeframes like the daily and upwards.

Volume Range EventsChanges in the feelings (positive, negative, neutral) in the market concerning the valuation of an instrument are often preceded with sudden outbursts of buying and selling frenzies. The aim of this indicator is to report such outbursts. We can see them as expansions of volume, sometimes 10 times more than usual. and as extensions of the trading range, also sometimes 10 times more than usual (e.g. usual range is 10 cent suddenly a whole dollar.) The changes are calculated in such a way that these fit between plus and minus 100 percent, the bars are scaled in some sort of logarithmic way. The Emoline is the same as the one in the True Balance of Power indicator, which I already published
ONLY RISES ARE EVENTS
Sometimes analysts are tempted to give meaning to low volume or small ranges. These simply mean that the market has little interest in trading this instrument. I believe that in such cases the trader needs to wait for expansion and extension events to happen, then he can make a better guess of where the market is heading. As events often mark the beginning or ending of a trend, this indicator provides an early and clear signal, because it doesn’t bother us about non-events.
WHAT IS USUAL?
If the algorithm would use an average as a normal to scale volume or range events, then previous peaks will act as spoilers by making the average so high that a following peak is scaled too small. I developed a function, usual() , that kicks out all extremes of a ‘population of values’ and which returns the average of the non-extreme values. It can be called with any serial. This function is called by both algorithms that report volume and range peaks, which guarantees that the results are really comparable. As this function has a fixed look back of 8 periods, we might state that ‘usual’ is a short lived relative value. I think this doesn’t matter for the practical use of the indicator.
COLORING AND INTERPRETATION
I follow the categories in the ‘Better Volume Indicator’, published by LeazyBear, these are:
1. Climactic Volumes, event >40 % (this means peak is 1.5 X usual)
LIME: Climax Buying Volume, direction up, range event also > 30 %
RED: Climax Selling Volume, direction down, range event also > 30 %
AQUA: Climax Churning Volume, both directions, range event < 30%
2. Smaller Volumes, event <40 %
GREEN: Supportive Volume, both directions, if combined with range event
BLUE: Churning Volume, both directions, if not combined with range event (Professional Trading)
3. Just Range Events

Session Range Control [PointAlgo]Session Range Control (SRC)
The Session Range Control (SRC) indicator provides a structured view of intraday price behavior by tracking where the current price sits within the session’s high–low range and how today’s volatility compares to the Average Daily Range (ADR). It combines range analytics, momentum context, volatility interpretation, and visual cues to help traders understand session strength and shifts in intraday conditions.
Core Concept
Every trading session forms a unique high and low. SRC continuously reads these values and calculates the Position in Range, expressed on a scale from 0% to 100%:
0% → Price at Day Low
100% → Price at Day High
50% → Mid-range equilibrium
By normalizing price into a percentage, traders can quickly interpret where market pressure is concentrated during the session.
Trend Zones and Market State
SRC divides the range into logical zones to show the likely sentiment of the session:
1. Strong Uptrend Zone (Above Threshold)
When price consistently holds above the user-defined upper threshold (e.g., 60%), the indicator marks a Strong Uptrend.
This typically reflects:
Persistent intraday buying pressure
Price acceptance near the upper part of the range
Reduced likelihood of deep pullbacks
2. Strong Downtrend Zone (Below Threshold)
When price remains below the lower threshold (e.g., 40%), SRC signals a Strong Downtrend, indicating:
Dominant intraday selling
Consistent pressure keeping price near session lows
3. Bullish / Bearish Zones
Between the midline and strong thresholds, SRC displays softer trend zones:
Above 50% = Bullish Zone
Below 50% = Bearish Zone
These zones help classify whether price is trending, balanced, or drifting.
4. Neutral Territory
When price hovers around the mid-level without conviction, the indicator treats it as a neutral or undecided phase.
Signal Logic :
SRC includes built-in momentum shift signals based on range transitions:
Long Signal
Triggered when price crosses upward through 50%, often showing:
A shift from intraday weakness to strength
Buyers gaining control of the session
Short Signal
Triggered when price crosses downward through 50%, suggesting:
Loss of intraday strength
Sellers taking control
These signals help highlight potential turning points inside the session.
Extreme Levels :
SRC highlights the top and bottom 10% of the range:
> 90% = Extreme High (Overbought intraday condition)
< 10% = Extreme Low (Oversold intraday condition)
These conditions can be useful for identifying overextended movements or potential reaction zones.
ADR Comparison and Volatility Context :
The indicator also measures how today’s price range compares to the Average Daily Range (ADR):
Range Expanding: Today’s range is significantly larger than the ADR
Indicates heightened volatility
Often associated with trending or breakout environments
Range Compressing: Today’s range is much smaller
Suggests low volatility
Common before breakout phases
Characteristic of consolidation or balanced markets
This volatility context helps traders assess whether the session is behaving within normal boundaries or deviating significantly.
Dashboard Overview :
When enabled, the dashboard summarizes key intraday metrics in a structured table:
Trend status (Strong Uptrend, Strong Downtrend, Bullish, Bearish, Neutral)
Range position (%)

DRACO DateTime Range Box — DELTA📘 Title
DRACO DateTime Range Box — Stable Δ (Fixed Bottom, Extend-Right)
🔹 Short Description
A single stable range box from a custom start date and time.
The box locks its bottom to the first candle’s low, expands the top to the highest high, and accumulates Bars / Volume / Net Δ (buyers vs sellers).
Anchored to time (xloc.bar_time) so it stays stable and does not drift when zooming.
🔹 Full Description
What it does
DRACO DateTime Range Box — Stable Δ draws one clean, session-like box between any two dates and times you choose.
The bottom is fixed to the first in-range candle’s low (never moves).
The top expands dynamically to the highest high within the range.
The indicator accumulates:
• Bars – total candle count
• Volume – summed traded volume
• Net Δ (delta) – buyers vs sellers dominance
All geometry is anchored by real time (xloc.bar_time), ensuring perfect stability during zooming or resizing.
Optional extend-right mode continues the high and low levels into the future as guide lines.
Typical Use Cases
Accumulation / distribution analysis within a fixed time window.
Identifying who dominated the period — buyers (+) or sellers (−).
Spotting large-scale range phases or institutional accumulation.
Using the extended high/low as future support/resistance reference.

NQ Manipulation/Distribution Projections + Average RangeThis is not your typical OHLC indicator :)
Overview:
The Manipulation/Distribution Projections (OHLC Stats) indicator is a powerful tool designed to forecast potential price levels for various timeframes. It operates on a simple yet profound principle: price action within a single candle can be broken down into "manipulation" and "distribution" phases. By analyzing over 17 years of historical data for major assets in Python, this script calculates the average (mean) and typical (median) extent of these movements.
These statistical insights are then used to project key levels on your chart based on the current period's opening price, providing a statistically-grounded framework for potential support, resistance, and price targets.
Key Concepts Explained
The indicator's logic is based on how price wicks and bodies form relative to the opening price.
• Manipulation: This refers to the initial move that goes against the candle's eventual direction. For a bullish candle, it's the lower wick (the move from the open down to the low before reversing higher). For a bearish candle, it's the upper wick (the move from the open up to the high before selling off). It represents a "fake out" or a stop hunt.
• Distribution: This is the primary, directional move of the candle from the opening price. For a bullish candle, it's the distance from the open to the high. For a bearish candle, it's the distance from the open to the low. It represents the "real" intended direction of price for that period.
How It Works
This indicator does not calculate these ratios in real-time. Instead, it leverages a comprehensive statistical analysis performed externally in Python on over 17 years of OHLC data. This analysis determined the mean and median ratios for both Manipulation and Distribution movements across different timeframes and, for intraday periods, different times of day.
These pre-computed, static ratios are embedded directly into the script. When a new period begins (e.g., a new day on the Daily timeframe), the indicator:
1. Takes the opening price for that period.
2. Retrieves the corresponding pre-calculated Manipulation and Distribution ratios.
3. Applies these ratios to the opening price to project eight potential price levels:
o + / - Mean Distribution
o + / - Median Distribution
o + / - Mean Manipulation
o + / - Median Manipulation
This approach provides a stable, forward-looking set of levels for the entire duration of the trading period.

Features
• Statistically-Derived Projections: Plots eight key price levels based on historical tendencies, providing clear potential zones for entries, exits, and stop placement.
• Selectable Timeframe: Choose to view projections for the 1H, 4H, 1D, or 1W periods directly from the settings.
• Dynamic Stats Table: A powerful, on-chart dashboard that provides real-time context. For all four timeframes (1H, 4H, 1D, 1W), it shows:
o Position: Where the current price is relative to the projected zones (e.g., "In +Manip Zone," "Below -Dist").
o Range Completed: The percentage of the historical average range that the current period has already covered.
o Current & Average Range: The current high-to-low range in points vs. the historical average.
• Historical Context: You can display levels for previous periods to see how price has interacted with them in the past.
• Full Customization: Control the color, style, and visibility of every line, label, and fill to match your chart's theme.
________________________________________
How to Use
This indicator is versatile and can be integrated into various trading strategies.
• Identifying Targets & Reversal Zones: The Distribution levels (especially the zone between the median and mean) can serve as logical take-profit targets, as they represent a historical point of extension. Conversely, Manipulation levels can indicate areas where price might form a wick and reverse.
• Gauging Volatility: Use the Stats Table's "Range Completed" column to assess market conditions. If the 1D range is only 30% complete by mid-day, there may be room for significant expansion. If it's already at 150%, the market might be overextended and due for consolidation.
• Multi-Timeframe Confluence: Use the Stats Table to quickly check if the price on a lower timeframe (e.g., 1H) is approaching a significant level on a higher timeframe (e.g., 1D), adding more weight to that level.
• Defining Bias: If the price opens and holds above the Manipulation zones, it can signal a strong directional bias for the rest of the period.
________________________________________
Settings
• Projection Timeframe: The primary timeframe for which to calculate and display the levels.
• Historical Periods to Show: Set to 1 for only the current period, or increase to see how levels from past periods held up.
• Timezone: Set the timezone for accurate hourly calculations (defaults to America/New_York).
• Visuals: Customize the appearance of the projection lines, labels, and the shaded zones between mean and median levels.
• Stats Table: Enable/disable the table and configure its position, size, and colors.
